Start with the Mangekyo Sharingan: Follow Lord Madara out of Konoha

Chapter 168: Chapter 61: Before the Sorrow



"Yin-Yang Fusion is an extremely long process, involving the genetic level, but Kagami didn't have time to fuse slowly. He could only use the Mangekyō Sharingan to balance the Wood Release in his body..."

Kamihane said softly, "After he lost his eyes, Hashirama's Yang Release backfired on him, and he became what he is now."

Nian was stunned, all his expressions frozen on his face.

A gust of wind blew, rolling down petals, the giant tree swayed, and the sea of flowers surged.

But Nian only felt a block in his heart, and sad thoughts condensed into a large stone, making him unable to breathe.

He silently came to the giant tree, reaching out and stroking its rough and cold bark, as if at some point, he could really feel the temperature.

Some unexplainable emotions filled his body, and an electric current seemed to flow across his back. The Two-Tomoe Sharingan automatically appeared, and a third tomoe split out in a burst of red light.

"Do you hate me?" Kamihane asked faintly.

"Senior does things with a deep meaning." Nian said almost gritting his teeth.

Kamihane pondered for a moment and suddenly asked, "Suppose one day, Kirito joined hands with Danzo for the sake of Konoha's interests and tried to tie you to Root, what would you do?"

"Kirito is my best friend. He would rather die than do these things." Nian looked back at Kamihane, his pupils scarlet and wet.

"Yes, but Uchiha Kagami did."

Kamihane smiled frankly and said lightly: "By the way, my name is Uchiha Kamihane, and I am his older brother."

Nian opened his mouth wide, and for a moment he only felt like he had been struck by lightning.

Older... older brother...?

So, Senior is my... uncle?

And his father betrayed him for the sake of Konoha! ??

"In the Warring States Period, our parents died at the hands of the Senju clan. Emotionally, I can never forgive them. Rationally, I also saw the decay of Konoha. Uchiha Kagami's situation, I already foresaw it more than 20 years ago, so I left Konoha."

Kamihane looked up at the night sky, his eyes light, "But, Uchiha Kagami betrayed me, forcing me to turn against Konoha. Speaking of which, I wasn't even as big as you were at the time..."

"Why did he do that!" Nian couldn't help but say, only feeling incomprehensible.

If it were him, he would definitely stand firmly on the side of his family, regardless of right and wrong, only because in his eyes, there was nothing more precious in this world than family.

Kamihane spread his hands, his laughter containing a hint of sarcasm, "This is the truth about your father. He did his best for Konoha, devoted his whole life, but was forced to a dead end by his own people, only wanting to die! He betrayed his only family, and was betrayed by the village he guarded and the companions he cherished. This is him, Uchiha Kagami's sad and ridiculous life!"

He sneered, he accused, and under the cold moonlight, he was eloquent, like a lonely god.

Nian's pupils trembled, and Kamihane's figure was reflected in his eyes. He could fully feel the undisguised... hatred in this uncle's body!

"I... I..." Nian stood up unconsciously, staggering towards Kamihane, his lips tightly pursed, "If that's the case, why was I born into this world? Neither Konoha nor you... have any need to keep me..."

Kamihane smiled slightly, his smile showing a sense of freedom, "Letting you live is because of his entrustment before he died, your name... was also given by me."

Nian clenched his fists silently, his heart feeling like it had been soaked in cold water, with no warmth at all, and his stomach was constantly churning.

"So... Senior's care for me, teaching me secret techniques, giving me expectations, and giving me recognition, are all just because... of my father's entrustment?"

A cold aura spread out, centered on Nian, like a cloak. The surrounding flowers and plants began to curl their leaves.

In his mind, memories flashed back.

The cold bed, expired bread, an empty room, the ostracism of the clan...

No one needed, and no one approved.

Whether it was in the village or in the clan, he was superfluous.

Until…

'Oh, right, that guy... I think you're more pleasing to the eye. I'll give you this technique. It's up to you whether you want to practice it yourself or hand it over to the village.'

Since then, Senior's existence became a ray of light in his heart, giving him a goal to work towards.

Unconsciously, his goal changed from "clearing his father's name" to "gaining Senior's recognition".

Does… all of this mean there was a betrayal?

Then what is the meaning of his life? What is the meaning of his existence?

"Vast heaven and earth, yet I stand alone..." He murmured with empty eyes.

Before Nian's expression completely darkened, Kamihane spoke again, and his clear voice floated into his ears:

"Don't be so depressed. At the beginning, Kagami didn't directly say that I should take care of you."

"Wh-What?" Nian was stunned.

"His original words were... your life is at my disposal." Kamihane smiled, "All my appreciation, encouragement, care, and training for you are only because... you are worth it."

"I don't have him as a brother, but you will always be my nephew."

Some kind of emotion erupted like a tsunami, completely uncontrollable.

Nian suddenly opened his eyes, and in a flash of red light, three tomoe rotated and condensed, and then stretched out eight black filaments. In his scarlet pupils, it looked like a vermilion sunflower was in full bloom.

At this moment, his aura was bone-chillingly cold, his emotions surged, and tears couldn't stop gushing from his eyes.

Looking at those beautiful eyes, Kamihane chuckled in wonder.

"You opened the Mangekyō at 11, your talent seems to be much higher than Kagami's."

Nian lightly stroked his eyes. So this is what it feels like to open the Mangekyō Sharingan?

He walked to Kamihane and knelt down in front of the other party in surprise.

"Nian has lived a lonely life since he was a child. He's like duckweed without roots, just drifting with the waves. If it weren't for you, I might not have found the meaning of my existence. Now that I know the truth, I hate the vile actions of Konoha even more, and I never want to go back to that place. Apart from here, I can't find a place to belong..."

Kamihane was surprised, and his narrow phoenix eyes blinked slightly. "Can I think that you want to follow me?"

"I know that my strength is weak and I'm not worthy to be with you, but I will prove my worth and never let you down!" Nian said immediately.

"Oh? How do you want to prove it?"

"I know that you value Orochimaru and Hizure very much. Since I failed the previous test, let this be my trial." Nian's eyes were sincere, and there was a touch of determination in his eyes. "If I can't help them find the treasure, then I will commit suicide immediately and never be a burden to you!"

"Please give me this chance, Uncle!" Nian kowtowed heavily, his voice sonorous.

Kamihane suddenly froze, and the emotions that had been silent in his heart for more than ten years seemed to be touched, rippling in layers.

Nian knelt on the ground with his head resting on the ground. Because of anxiety, his whole back was trembling, like a small quail shivering in the rain.

For a moment, Kamihane suddenly felt that he was so thin. Such a small person was lying on the ground, and his thin bones couldn't even support his ragged clan clothes. He subconsciously reached out his hand to his nephew, his fingertips trembling slightly.

In fact, he told Nian all the truth today in order to confirm the mind of his nephew.

If Nian showed weakness and still had hope for Konoha like his father, then Kamihane would have nothing to say and would draw a line with him from now on.

But the facts proved that this kid's personality was more like his uncle.

The palm that had been extended into the air was quickly withdrawn.

"Okay, I'll give you this chance." Kamihane said faintly.
